More of the Roman Curia

The last two days have brought a few more visits to the Roman Congregations.  Last night we visited the Congregation for Divine Worship, where we were hosted by Monsignor Thomas Fucinaro, priest of the Diocese of Lincoln, NE.  Msgr. Fucinaro disussed the work of his Congregation, answered our questions, and passed along greetings to us from the Prefect, Cardinal Canizares-Llovera.

 This morning, we visited the offices of the Pontifical Council for Justice and Peace, which is the arm of the Roman Curia that is responsible for promoting human rights and the development of peoples throughout the world.  We were hosted by the Undersecretary of the Council, Dr. Flaminia Giovanelli, who is the highest-ranking laywoman in the Roman Curia.
